Manchester United have been dealt an early transfer blow after learning Edinson Cavani will snub a move to Old Trafford.

According to Spanish news website Fichajes, Cavani would prefer a move to either Juventus or Atletico Madrid if he were to leave Paris St-Germain this summer.

Chelsea's efforts to sign £70m-rated duo Raphael Varane and Koke may be in serious jeopardy.

The Express report that the threat of an impending FIFA ban will halt any potential transfer dealings involving Real Madrid or Atletico Madrid.

Arsenal are leading French outfit PSG in the race to sign Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech.

The Mirror claim Chelsea's North London rivals will look to tempt Cech with a lucrative offer during the summer.

Arsene Wenger will face stiff competition from PSG who are willing to match his current £120,000 per-week wages.

Blues boss Jose Mourinho has already conceded that Cech's Stamford Bridge exit is a possibility, but vowed it would take 'huge money' to sign him.

He said: "I don't think Petr is a guy to be persuaded. He doesn't let anyone persuade him.

"I think he's very mature making what he feels is the best decision for him and his future. I will just wait, wishing his decision is to stay. That's my desire. I would like him very, very much to stay.

"But I don't waste my time trying to persuade him because it's just his decision."
